Here’s the one and only real reason why Jeb Bush should not wait until 2016 if he aspires to the Presidency:
-In 2016 an immensely popular Republican President will be running for re-election and there will be NO oxygen in the air for any challenger. Therefore, a wait until 2016 is really a wait until 2020, and by then the landscape will have so changed that Jeb Bush will come across as an unelectable Harold Stassen.
Well said!
They know this of course and why they are pushing for Palin not to run. If she runs and wins the Bush family loses power for years....yet that threat is still not big enough to get Jeb to run because the risk of him running and losing in a landslide in the primaries is much bigger and could destroy the Bush family for all time.
